Ke Xuezhuo's son-in-law

Chapter 579 The lucky man
  Everyone knows Kuroba Kaito, but it is the first time for Aoko to meet Xiaolan and others. After a brief wait and see, Xiaolan happily accepted the setting that there really is another self in the world, and Aoko's Qingmei is also very similar to Shinichi and Kuroba Kaito makes Xiaolan even more happy. She feels that it should be the same scene when she and Shinichi stand together.

Naturally, Aoko didn't think about Ran as much as Ran. It was also the first time for her to meet Ran, Sonoko and Conan. Especially after seeing Conan, she vaguely remembered Kaito when she was a child, so she smiled and bent over and touched Conan's head. , and praised, "What a cute child."

This made Conan blush and smile helplessly. Kaito also took the opportunity to ruffle Conan's hair in retaliation and said, "Really? Why don't I feel that way?"

"Okay, okay, it's time to go. Anyway, we have plenty of time. Let He Ye and I be your tour guides and take you around."

"Uh-huh."

When the breeze blew through the ancient temple, bringing with it the fragrance of cherry blossoms, a few people met in front of the lottery stall in this peaceful place. The afternoon sun shines through the treetops and dapples the stone ground, adding a warm color to this quaint place.

Fujiwara and Kaito initially just stood aside, observing with slightly curious eyes. They were not eager to participate, but under the urging of others, they were gradually involved in this simple but traditional activity.

The boss next to the lottery booth is a kind-faced old man. He wears a traditional kimono. His hair has turned gray, but his movements are still vigorous. He took out a bamboo tube filled with small bamboo sticks with sacred fortunes written on them, and nodded to Fujiwara and Kaito, indicating that they could start drawing lots.

Fujiwara hesitated for a moment. His eyes fell on the thick wrinkles on the old man's face, as if looking for a sure signal. Finally, amid the cheers of encouragement from everyone, he took a deep breath and took a step forward. At this moment, the temple's bronze bell sounded in the distance, its sound low and long, as if to endorse his decision.

His fingers groped in the bamboo tube, each stick seemed to hide the secret of fate. Fujiwara closed his eyes and finally chose one finger. He pulled it out of the tube, the label swaying gently in the sunlight, as if to demonstrate its importance to him.

Opening the small sticker, a complicated emotion flashed in Fujiwara's eyes. The handwriting on the signature is elegant and simple. The word "Xiao Ji" jumps into the eye, and the meaning of "move with your heart" is attached below.

Seeing this, Fujiwara vaguely felt that this should represent the way he would do things in the future. Looking back, he had been cautious and uncomfortable. He was obviously relying on the organization and had a huge backer, but he had always been submissive. It was really a bit suffocating. Qu, I obviously want it, but I never take the initiative to ask for it. I try to deal with everything with self-righteous sincerity, which makes me look very hypocritical.
  Xiaolan also drew a good lottery, which meant she could reunite with the person she was looking forward to and her lover.

She stood quietly in front of the draw, her eyes shining with anticipation. Unlike others, her hand did not hesitate, as if she had already wanted something in her heart. She stretched out her slender fingers, turned her wrist slightly, and pulled out a stick from the bamboo tube. The movements were so natural and smooth, as if everything had been predetermined.

She took the sign and unfolded it gently, her eyes fixed on the vivid Chinese characters. "Being reunited with the person you are looking forward to", these words were like a spring breeze blowing through her heart, causing a smile like a cherry blossom to bloom on her face.

"Wow, so Xiaolan's childhood sweetheart is here?" He Ye, who was watching him from the side, then spoke to him.

He Ye's voice broke Xiaolan's brief moment of joy, and her question was filled with a hint of mischief and expectation. Xiaolan nodded, her heart filled with sweetness and anticipation for this omen that heralded Shinichi's reunion.

"Oh?" Sonoko also put down the hand of Hanji and came over and said, "Is that guy Shinichi coming to see you?"

"Hmm, that should be it."    Xiaolan asked for the love lottery, so the displayed content should refer to Shinichi.

"That's great, I want to meet him too."

Before, Heiji had been talking about Kudo's coming, and Kudo's coming made her misunderstand that Kudo was a vixen, and made a lot of jokes. She actually wanted to see with her own eyes who Kudo Shinichi was.

Seeing such a scene, Conan, who was standing aside with a straight face, said helplessly, "Hey, hey, hey, I'm right here, haven't you seen it before? Haha."

As for Conan, the true identity that has been hidden behind Kudo Shinichi, his helplessness and bitterness can only be hidden in his heart. His movements were slightly stiff, and his fingers unconsciously brushed his eyes, which was a small movement he was trying to hide. There was a hint of self-deprecation in his smile, but it was still a humorous self-mockery.

He has always been beside Xiaolan, but she didn't know it.

Speaking of tags, he just drew one and didn’t know what it was.

As he said this, he was about to open it and take a look, but was interrupted by Hattori Heiji who suddenly came over. Heiji squatted down and whispered into Conan's ear, "I'm talking about Kudo, do you also know that boy named Kuroba?"

"Oh, him..." Conan turned his head, his eyes followed Heiji's and landed on the black feather boy. His movements were slow and casual, as if he was giving himself time to remember, or hiding his surprise.

"I know him. I've met him several times before. He seems to be Fujiwara's younger brother." Conan said casually.

"That's not it..." Hattori's voice sounded a little urgent, and he waved his hands gently in the air, as if to emphasize the importance of his question. "I mean, have you ever thought about it, he actually looks a lot like you, even his voice is so similar..."

Conan paused for a moment, "Is it that similar? But it does seem to be." Conan's voice was filled with doubts, and his eyes unconsciously drifted to Black Feather in the distance, as if to confirm his judgment.

As he spoke, Conan thought about how Xiaolan had called him before and said that he saw 'him' holding hands with a strange girl in Shinjuku and asked who the girl was. Now that she thought about it, it was Kuroba and the one named Aoko who she met. girl.

"No." Hattori's voice became more anxious, and he waved his hands quickly within Conan's line of sight, as if trying to get Conan's attention back. "I mean, you look so similar. Could it be that you are relatives or something? What if..."

"I don't know. I have to ask my mother about this kind of thing." Conan's voice calmed down. He raised his head and looked directly at Hattori, with a hint of determination in his eyes. "Maybe we do have some common ancestor as you said." His shoulders lightly shrugged, as if he was releasing the weight of uncertainty.
